Let's divide 272472 by 13
We want to figure out the number of times 272472 can be divided by 13.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 13 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 13

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 27 by 13, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 26 from 27 to get 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 13

Step 3:
12 divided by 13 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 124 / 13

On to step 4:
13 can be fit into 124 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 209.0
Deduct 117 from 124 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 77 / 13

Step 5:
77 divided by 13 is 5 with a remainder of 12.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2095.0
Deduct 65 from 77 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 122 / 13

Let's proceed to step 6:
13 goes into 122 9 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20959.0
If we subtract 117 from 122, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
13 goes into 50 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20959.3
Subtracting 39 from 50 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 13 fits into 110 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20959.38
Deduct 104 from 110 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
60 divided by 13 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20959.384
Subtract 52 from 60 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
13 can be fit into 80 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20959.3846
Deduct 78 from 80 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
13 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 20959.38461
Subtract 13 from 20 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 13 fits into 70 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20959.384615
Subtracting 65 from 70 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
13 goes into 50 3 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20959.3846153
Subtract 39 from 50 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
13 goes into 110 8 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20959.38461538
Subtract 104 from 110 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 20959.38461538 with a remainder of 6e-09.
